TIC MoHart Inst Night.


The Ui5lSicQic last evening, every
thing considered, was highly creditable,
and seemed TO give genuine satisfdc-
ton There was fine audience pres
ont, and the programme was well St.
lcCtcd.
The vocalist of the evening was Miss
Edna Gray, Of New York. This talented
young lady had on two occasions before
favored the association. She was ~

iut Was suffering from a severe cold.
and could not sing. Her throat was in
bad condition last evening, yet she
charmed her audience in three num-
bers, and won applause such that most
decidedly tlattering recalls would have
been demanded but for the intlexible
rule of No CncOrcs allowed" Miss
Gray not only possesses naturally
beautiful voice, but she knows how to
use it. 1t is apleasure to state that she
contempiates making Richmond her
home if as a vocal teacher she can
make it remuneratiye.
Miss Ready, of Boston, appeared for
the first time before the association as
violin sOloist. Her conscientious
efforts in two numbers were thoroughly
appreciated by her auditors, and she
received fattering applause.
Mr.. Kirk Mathews was the accompa
mist for Miss Gray, and acquitted him
self most handsomely. AS pianist
he Las not been properly heard and APP
preciated here. 1t is to be hoped that
lie will not "hide his light under a
bushel, and that he will soon exhibit
his decided talent and abilities as a
piano soloiSt.
The orchestral numbers were rem
dered 10y the Mozart Amateur Orches-
ira, and their efforts seemed to be tho
roughly appreciated by the audience.
They appeared in evening dress, with |
floral decorations, and played under
the direction Of their teacher, Profes-
sor John Kessnich, and acquitted them
selves in three numbers most creditably.
Ii could not be expected that they |
would play as well as professionals yet |
they surprised their friends and did |

dent, SIR. Edward Archer.
THE AMATEUR ORCHESTRA.
1t is highly appropriate at this time
to give u history of this branch of the
Association. An organization
which is an exemplifcation of the
spirit Of the Mozart--the fostering and
rearing of musical talent.
On September 81, 1882, the Music
Committee OF the Mozart Association
appointed subcommittee composed
4 Messrs. Archer and Hoen TO see if
hey could organize an amateur orches-
IRA in connection with the Mozart.
rhey published circular calling all
hose interested in the project TO as
,emble in the band-room Of the " Mo.
art Hall " for organization. Some
wenty or more were at the meeting,

Boonton's Blasphemer.

NEW YORK, May 23.-In the trial of Chas.
Reynolds, for blashemy, at Morristown, N. j.,
Friday, Col. Ingersoll, addressing the jury,
said: at is too late In the day to enforce a
law like this. II has been evoked from it's
loag slumber by zeal, perhaps, but i will say
zeal without knowledge. Labor is the only
prayer, goodhonest work Is the noblest form
Of worship. He who adds to the sum Of
human Joy is a worshipper, he who adds to
the sum Of human misery is a blasphemer.
This law Is unconstitutional, because,
II you give 1t the meaning given by
the grand jury, it does asridge the
liberty OF speech. / sincerely hope it viii
never again be necessary under the flag Of the
United States for a man to stand before a
jury r!eading for the right Of human liberty
OF speech"
Judge Childs charged the jrry that the law
about sIasphsmy was as much q law AS ever
it WAS, and had In fact been practically re-
enacted liz 1874 and 1874. All they had TO
consider was whether the defendant had v1o-
lated 1t. In an hour the jury returned n ver-
dict of guilty. Reynolds was sentenced to
pay a fine Of S25 and costs, 800 In all, for
which lngersoli drew a check for SIS. Rey-
holds says he will continue . tour and dis
tribute phamplets.
